COMMENT: Gary Plummer just made a great point on KNBR. He said they need to give Alex Smith the right to call plays in the red zone in loud stadiums. By the way, Rachal had a thigh injury.

49ers drive cont: Joe Nedney makes 23-yard field goal. The 49ers were going for a touchdown on 4th-and-goal from the 1-and-a-half, and they couldn’t get the play off. How frustrating is that? The 49ers continue to have problems getting the play called and lined up. Does Raye take too much time calling the play? 49ers 6-0.

49er drive: The 49ers just called their last time out, so now they can’t challenge a bad call. Anthony Davis got beat by Red Bryant for a sack for first down. Guys continue to line up in the wrong spot, which has necessitated the time outs. The 49ers now face another 4th-and-less-than-a-yard. Rachal is back

Seahawks drive: Nothing. Another three and out, nice stop on first down by Sopoaga. He then got up and put a hand to his ear mockingly, wanting some applause from the Seattle crowd. Good return by Ted Ginn, Jr., the 49ers are at the 37 of Seattle.

49ers drive cont: Smith has only thrown three incompletions, but they’ve be costly, including the last one, a high touch pass to Moran Norris in the end zone on 4th-and-short. The 49ers are denied a change to score after an 85-yard drive. 49ers 3-0.

49ers drive: Great screen to Frank Gore to get a first down on 2-and-19. Jimmy Raye is calling a good game, Seattle no idea where Gore was. Chilo Rachal is out, but Tony Wragge is doing good job as his replacement.

Seattle drive: Three and out. Two runs and a bubble screen sniffed out by Michael Lewis. Justin Smith with a good series.

49ers drive: Clements intercepts on the first play of the game, but the 49ers settle for a field goal. If Alex Smith had thrown a better pass to Josh Morgan, the 49ers would have scored. Instead, he threw high, and Morgan was bumped out of bounds. 3-0 49ers

Seattle will receive

The 49ers have come out onto the field arm and arm in show of team solidarity. They were led by the team captains Alex Smith, Vernon Davis, Patrick Willis, Justin Smith and Takeo Spikes.

Now we’ll see if all the work Alex Smith has done over the off-season in terms of pestering coaches and learning the small details will pan out for him.

The sun should be out for the game and wind should be manageable. And don’t expect too much variation from what the 49ers showed in the preseason. Mike Singletary wanted to practice the team’s main schemes in exhibition games. If that’s the case, expect blitzing, particularly from linebackers.
